{{ | {{Quote|text=It's hard to say where exactly the Hoodbooms' allegiances lie: with [[André|the Dark Lum Lord]] or with the firebombs they crave to set off. Striving to create the biggest explosion ever recorded, Hoodbooms craft explosives with a demolitionist's skill, only to detonate them with a maniac's glee.

They are somewhat maniacal and can often be seen laughing crazily and juggling their explosives. However, despite outward appearances, Hoodbooms are considered to be the most intelligent of all [[Hoodlum]]s, as they are the only ones able to count to three. Hoodbooms are also known to write poetry; one Hoodboom wrote an anthology called 'Don't Take It Anti-Personnelly' which proved quite popular with other [[Hoodlum]]s, having sold well over three copies. | They are somewhat maniacal and can often be seen laughing crazily and juggling their explosives.

Hoodbooms often stand in high places where they cannot be reached without the aid of the [[Shock Rocket]]; they usually laugh in their high-pitched voices while throwing bombs down towards [[Rayman]]. However, even grounded Hoodbooms are not easy to defeat; they are twice as [[Resistance|resistant]] as [[Hoodmonger]]s, and when [[Telescopic fist|punched]], they grow angry and begin to throw a large number of jugs at once, making it difficult to avoid being damaged by them. Some Hoodbooms stand on stilts in order to avoid attacks, but are susceptible to being brought down by the [[Vortex]] [[Telescopic fist|fist]]. These are known as [[Stumbleboom]]s. | Hoodbooms often stand in high places where they cannot be reached without the aid of the [[Shock Rocket]]; they usually laugh in their high-pitched voices while throwing bombs down towards [[Rayman]].

In [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], [[shielded Hoodboom]]s appear in the first part of [[Hoodlum Hideout]] and are shown throwing explosive bottles of [[plum juice]] at [[Rayman]] while holding a large, wooden shield, which can be destroyed by [[Rayman]]'s [[telescopic fist]]. In the second part of the same level, different [[shielded Hoodboom]]s appear, carrying impenetrable metal shields, which [[Rayman]] has to circle. | In [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], [[shielded Hoodboom]]s appear in the first part of [[Hoodlum Hideout]] and are shown throwing explosive bottles of [[plum juice]] at [[Rayman]] while holding a large, wooden shield, which can be destroyed by [[Rayman]]'s [[telescopic fist]].
